MOONETTE – Organic Skincare for Mature Skin
We are a Torrox-based company specialising in the creation of formulae which help prevent premature skin ageing. We are committed to making effective products at affordable prices.
Your skin health matters to us. How you feed your skin is as important as how you feed your body. Why settle for anything less than natural and organic?
As our skin is the first layer of our defence against microbial infections, ultraviolet radiation and environmental contamination it plays a vital role in our health. As we grow older, however, our skin becomes thinner, wrinkled, and more sensitive; hence it requires the use of treatments containing specific ingredients to the care of treating mature skin.
Recognising this need we have created a range of formulae which help
-slow down ageing process by smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
-improve facial complexion and eliminate blemishes.
At Moonette, we are passionate about health, beauty and plants. Your skin will benefit from the properties of botanic essential oils combined with a selection of nutrients for deep hydration, cell revitalization and antioxidant effect, all sourced from the finest natural ingredients with gorgeous fragrances.
Naturally, we care about our planet and feel the need to help reduce the sheer volumes of plastics waste that are generated daily around the globe. Presently, we are minimizing the usage of plastic materials in our production while seeking alternative forms of packaging. To help reduce pollution we are asking all local customers to recycle or reuse their Moonette skincare containers, and offering a small discount on future purchases to customers recycling containers.

The Junta reduces agricultural irrigation in La Axarquía to 1,500 cubic metres per hectare per year: {Translation, summary}
-The Drought Management Commission has approved the declaration of a situation of exceptional drought in the exploitation systems of Benínar (Almería), Guadalhorce-Limonero (Málaga) and Costa del Sol Occidental (Málaga). This is in addition to the declaration of exceptional drought situation established in the territorial units with surface regulation of Campo de Gibraltar (Cádiz), Viñuela (Costa del Sol Oriental de Málaga) and Cuevas de Almanzora (Almería) last June 2021. This decree also declared the same exceptional drought situation in the territorial units of El Condado (Huelva) and Sistema Barbate (Cádiz).
-The scant rainfall in the Andalusian community during the current hydrological year means that the Western Costa del Sol, with rainfall of only 21.54% of the historical average for this area, has a volume of water in reservoirs that represents 37.74% of the total capacity of the system.
-In the Viñuela system, the activation of water saving plans has been approved with the objective of achieving at least a 20% reduction in urban supply, limiting the allocation to 200 litres per inhabitant per day. It has also been agreed to reduce the amount of regulated water for irrigation to 1,500 cubic metres per hectare per year.
-The Committee of Management of the Drought have adopted a series of measures common to all systems declared in a situation of exceptional drought, as set forth in the decree of June 2021.
-Among other measures, the prohibition of the use of water resources fit for human consumption for the following uses: street cleaning, filling of swimming pools, watering gardens, public parks and private, golf courses, car wash outside of approved establishments, ornamental fountains that do not have a closed-circuit water, showers, and suppliers to the public.

Can Unvaccinated Travellers Enter Spain?: Even though Spain has relaxed some of its COVID-19 restrictions, the country still continues to keep in place entry rules based on travellers’ country of origin.
According to Spain’s official travel website, travellers from European Union/Schengen Area and those from safe third countries are subject to less stringent rules when reaching Spain. On the other hand, travellers from the rest of the countries need to follow more strict measures.
The Spanish authorities explain that travellers from the EU/Schengen Area countries that are part of the risk list are permitted entry by presenting one of the certificates that is part of the EU Digital COVID Pass – a vaccination, recovery, or test certificate.
Such a statement suggests that even unvaccinated EU/Schengen Area travellers can enter Spain as long as they present a recovery Certificate or a negative COVID-19 test result. Spain accepts recovery certificates provided that the document proves that the holder has recovered from the virus in the last 180 days. Full article:

UNCONFIRMED- Platform for the Defense of the National and International Road Freight Transport Sector announced an indefinite national transport strike beginning at midnight on Monday, March 14:
-While no other transport unions have yet announced plans to join Monday´s strike, the Association of International Road Transport (Astic) has warned of the “economic disaster and shortages” that Spain faces if the Government does not “immediately” adopt measures to alleviate the effects that high fuel prices are causing in the sector.
-The last time a national freight strike took place over fuel costs in June 2008, large queues accumulated at petrol stations, while prices rose even further. The strike also prompted food shortages in Spain.
-Fuel prices have been rising across Europe since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, with the price of diesel rising by 20.2 per cent in just two weeks. Full article that fails to provide supporting evidence:

63% of Spaniards fail to fall asleep quickly at bedtime: {Translation}
– According to a perception survey conducted by Laboratorios Diafarma on a sample of 502 people, 63 percent of Spaniards are unable to fall asleep quickly at bedtime, either regularly or occasionally.-Furthermore, according to this study, 39 percent of Spaniards claim to sleep badly at night. Of these, 26 percent say that the main reason they sleep badly is because they wake up once or several times during the night, followed by difficulty in falling asleep (18%), waking up before the hour and not going back to sleep (16%), or sleeping too lightly (14%), among others.
-According to the report, the factors that most “keep Spaniards awake” are work or financial problems (45%), followed by family or partner problems (37%) and, lastly, health problems (30%).
-The conclusions of the survey reveal that 33 per cent of Spaniards usually wake up once a night, almost the same percentage as those who usually wake up twice (32 per cent). Likewise, 19 percent report waking up three or more times. Those who do not usually wake up at night represent only 16 per cent of respondents.
-On the other hand, among the factors that stand out in the night-time habits of Spaniards, firstly, it is worth noting that more than half of the population (54%) say that they always go to bed at approximately the same time. The second most marked aspect of their night-time routine is the use of electronic devices, such as television, before going to bed (48%) and, in third place, eating little dinner and light meals (46%).
-In addition, 30 per cent of respondents report a habit of reading a little before bed and 29 per cent have a hot drink before going to bed to help them sleep.
-With regard to the impact of sleep on daily activity, there is unanimity among those surveyed, with 95 percent of Spaniards agreeing that a good night’s rest has an impact on their daily activity. “For this reason, it is essential to have a daily restful sleep that is of good quality and has an appropriate duration that guarantees the physical and emotional rest of the person,” the laboratory points out.
-Thus, the three keys for Spaniards to sleep well are, in this order: having a good habit in relation to bedtime (67%), relaxing before going to sleep, meditating or listening to relaxing music (55%) and not using electronic devices such as mobile phones or television in the bedroom (40.8%).
-Finally, according to the survey results, Spaniards prefer to sleep in company (41%) rather than alone (26%). However, the remaining 33% are indifferent to this aspect.

WhatsApp Source Code For Their Computer App So Weak They Want You Install A Special Tool So You Can Regularly Check If It Has Been Hacked:
-This applies to computers, not mobiles or tablets.
-Meta Platforms’ WhatsApp and Cloudflare have banded together for a new initiative called Code Verify to validate the authenticity of the messaging service’s web app on desktop computers.
-Available in the form of a Chrome and Edge browser extension, the open-source add-on is designed to “automatically verif[y] the authenticity of the WhatsApp Web code being served to your browser,” Facebook said in a statement.
-The goal with Code Verify is to confirm the integrity of the web application and ensure that it hasn’t been tampered with to inject malicious code. The social media company is also planning to release a Firefox plugin to achieve the same level of security across browsers.
-Code Verify is also meant to be flexible in that whenever the code for WhatsApp Web is updated, the cryptographic hash value will be updated automatically in tandem, so that the code served to users is certified on the fly.

Spain- 120 companies less each day in January: Companies have not yet managed to recover from the crisis caused by the pandemic and are already suffering the effects of the war in Ukraine. More than 3,700 companies have had to close their doors in the month of January, almost 120 on average each day. This is the highest number of dissolutions in three years (since January 2019), and that has not yet reflected the impact that the Russian invasion will undoubtedly have, which is already causing strikes in many industries as a result of the sharp increase in the price of energy.

Prices in Spain soar 7.6% in February and mark the highest inflation since December 1986:
-Inflation in Spain is out of control after months of increases and is now under pressure from the energy crisis derived from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased by 0.8% compared to the previous month, to 7.6%, to mark its highest rate since December 1986. The rate confirmed today, Friday, was revised upwards in two tenths with respect to the figure advanced 15 days ago by the National Institute of Statistics.
-This scenario translates into a double bill for the consumer, who has no choice but to assume the high cost of energy and, at the same time, the increase in prices that is transferred to other goods, food and services- Electricity (80.5%), liquefied hydrocarbons such as butane or propane (33.4%), diesel (28.4%) and gasoline (25.1%), but also some foods that make up the shopping basket, such as edible oils (32.3%).

Delta-Omicron hybrid identified for first time:
-A newly-discovered Covid variant that combines mutations from both Omicron and Delta is “the real thing,” scientists have said.
-Earlier in the year, concern was raised after a lab in Cyprus claimed to have found evidence of a Delta-Omicron recombination event – when the two variants co-infect a patient and exchange genetic material to produce a new viral offspring – but experts said the findings were false.
-Now, however, virologists from L’Institut Pasteur in Paris have sequenced the genome of a genuine “Deltacron” variant, which has been detected in several regions of France and appears to have been circulating since early January.
-“This one is legit,” said Aris Katzourakis, a professor of evolution and genomics at the University of Oxford. “[It is] one to keep an eye on.”
-At least 41 patients have been identified with Detlacron in the US and Europe since the variant first flagged in January. Health chiefs told The Sun that a “very small” number of cases have been detected in the UK, with more details set to be reported in a briefing on Friday (https://www.thesun.co.uk/health/17906718/delta-omicron-covid-hybrid-uk-waning-immunity/).
-Viral genomes with a similar profile to the Deltacron variant in France have also been discovered in Denmark and the Netherlands, but it has yet to be established if these recombinants derive from the same ancestor.

Lefty Hollywood “Empire” Actor And Race Hate Scammer Jussie Smollett starts 150-day jail term in protected status: Jussie Smollett began a 150-day jail sentence for staging a hate crime against himself in protective custody, separated from other detainees and watched by security cameras and an officer, jail authorities said Friday.
Sheriff’s deputies immediately took Smollett to the Cook County Jail on Thursday night after Judge James Linn sentenced the Black and gay actor to 30 months of felony probation — starting with a five-month term in jail — for lying to police that he had been the target of a racist and homophobic attack.
